Serves: 4 - 5
Ingredients
  • 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 medium Vidalia onion, chopped
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1 organic red pepper, chopped
  • 3 large organic sweet potatoes, peeled and chopped into small cubes
  • 1 14.5 ounce can diced organic fire roasted tomatoes
  • 1 15 ounce can organic aduki beans
  • 1 cup organic salsa
  • 1 cup vegetable stock or water
  • ½ package of Gardein Beefless Burger Crumbles
  • Chopped cilantro (or chopped parsley and chives for cilantro haters)
Instructions
  1. Heat a skillet (or use the saute/roast function on your slow cooker) and add the oil. Sauté the onion for about 5-6 minutes, followed by the garlic and the pepper. Cook for about 4 more minutes,
  2. Put the contents in the slow cooker if you have been using a skillet, or simply congratulate yourself on having a multifunction slow cooker, and switch it over from the saute/roast function to the slow cooking function and turn it to low.
  3. Add the sweet potatoes, fire roasted tomatoes, aduki beans, salsa, stock or water. Cook for about 4 hours on low.
  4. About 15 minutes before you are ready to serve, add the frozen crumbles, and stir them in well. Add a little more salsa or stock if you think it's cooked down too much. Cook the crumbles on high for about 10 -12 minutes, while you chop the cilantro or parsley and chives and set the table.
  5. Taste and adjust seasonings, and sprinkle on the chopped herbs.
